Install on SteamOS 3

Step 1

Installing distrobox on SteamOS is quite straightforward:

  1. Install distrobox in your HOME following the curl instructions:
  2. Add the Path you've chosen to install to your PATH (by default it's $HOME/.local/bin.

Step 2

We now need podman to be installed in order for distrobox to work. The easiest way is to use the script to install it in HOME, so it will survive future updates:

  1. Install podman in your HOME following the curl command:
  2. Add the Path you've chosen to install to your PATH (by default it's $HOME/.local/podman/bin.
  3. Add the Path you've chosen to install to your ~/.distroboxrc also.

Step 3

On some systems, you might have to enable this command in order to have graphical applications working: SEE THESE NOTES

To resolve add this line to your ~/.distroboxrc:

xhost +si:localuser:$USER

After this, you can open a new terminal, and have Distrobox working!
